Default techie solution

Connect the piece of solder between two croc clips in a thermocouple circuit connected to the computer. place the relevant part of the assembly in an oven (not the computer!)

Allow the oven to heat up very slowly.

When the oven reaches the melting point of the solder it will break the circuit and the reading will be lost. Record the temperature at which this occurs.
